Yes, Aiden was not happy with Ruby. Even though he had marked her and made her the luna of the


    pack, he was not happy with her. He didn’t think he was going to be happy at all with how the whole


    thing unfolded before his eyes.


    There was nothing going right for him and he felt like whatever he did, everything would only go south.


    “Why don’t you let her go then?” Gabriel couldn’t understand him. As the alpha and his best friend, he


    tried his hardest not to judge the stu pid decision that Aide had made in the past to cross path with


    Ruby, but it was hard not to do so. “You lost Lc because you chose her.”


    “I didn’t choose her,” Aiden corrected him. “I didn’t choose her, it was Lc, who didn’t want to forgive


    me.”


    Gabriel wanted to say that he would never forgive his mate either if he found out she was with


    someone else, but he swallowed the word and then tried to understand him more, since he looked so


    down.


    “Then why don’t you let her go? You only make her life miserable by keeping her here. and let your


    mother handled everything. You know that Ruby can’t get along well with the previous luna.” Gabriel


    pointed out the obvious.


    “That’s her fault for not being able to get along with my mother. Lc could do it with ease, she always


    met her expectation. Why she couldn’t do the same thing?” Aiden scoffed. He couldn’t help, but


    compare Ruby with Lc over and over again, especially when the two of them were not the same


    page and didn’t get along and it happen pretty often.


    Gabriel sighed deeply, he scratched the back of his head. “You look like you hate her, you know.


    Correct me if I am wrong with this assumption.”


    “I don’t think you are wrong…” Aiden replied. “Maybe I really hated her.” He couldn’t


    for sure about this feeling. He hated her, but she couldn’t let her go.


    say


    “If you really hated her, let her go, because it will only hurt the two of you. Why would you want to be


    hurt, though…”


    “Because if I am not with her, I lost Lc for nothing.” After all, it was because of Ruby that he lost Lc,


    therefore, if he had lost Ruby too, it meant, he didn’t get anything out of it and his pain was useless.

    When they walked in the corridor, the two of them met with Grace. She looked like she had been


    waiting for Aiden, because there was something important she wanted to talk about.


    |||


    O


    “Leave us alone,” Grace said to Gabriel firmly, her order sounded like she was the luna of the pack, but


    of course, because she was not, her voicecked of power.


    Gabriel crossed his arms instead, waiting for the order from the alpha before he really walked away, he


    intentionally smirked disdainfully at this woman.


    The beta couldn’t understand why the alpha took a high risk to shelter this woman in their pack when


    they knew she wouldn’t bring any benefit for them, if anything, she would only bring trouble, because


    she kept demanding for Aiden to find a way to free her father, who was being trapped under the


    dungeon of the lycan pack.


    “Congrattion for your baby,” Grace said without an ounce of happiness at all. She didn’t even try to


    be more genuine when she faked her smile.


    “I am not in a good mood, tell me what you want and then scram.” Grace was thest person he


    wanted to see. He wanted to talk about inviting the lycan pack with his mother. He didn’t want them to


    come, especially when he had to hand over the ne that Hunter demanded.


    Talking about the ne…


    There was more problem that he had talked about with his mother. It was about the ne, he had


    not yet told her anything about this and he knew it wouldn’t be a pretty conversation at all, knowing how


    much his mother cherished the ne of hers.


    “I want to demand you for what you promised me.” Grace started, she crossed her arms. and this


    gesture only pis sed Aiden off. He didn’t like to be told what to do.


    “Your father didn’t manage to kill him and he is still alive right now. There is still plenty of time.” Aiden


    actually had not yet thought about how to get Ken out of the dungeon. His mind was still upied


    with something else.


    “What plenty of time?!” Grace snapped. “What if he changed his mind and decided to kill him?! Can you


    guarantee something like that will never happened?!”


    Aiden was in foul mood to begin with, thus to hear Grace shouted at him really didn’t sit well with him.


    “Can you shut your mouth?! Find out about the other pack of the lycan and I will dedicate my precious


    time to get your father’s as s out of that da mn dungeon!” Aiden barked at Grace, who flinched because


    it was very scary to be told off.


    However, Grace regained herposure pretty quickly, as she barked back at Aiden. “I told


    you that only father knew about this! Are you stu pid or what?!”


    Aiden raised his hand and was about to p Grace for badmouthing him, but then he stopped himself


    in time before he did something that he would regret it. After all, he still needed this crazy woman.

    “Hunter will be here within a week from now, you better not to make appearance and tell your mother to


    not to roam around the pack house, the less people recognize you the better.” Aiden then walked away


    from her.


    “Aiden, you need to make sure to get my father out of the dungeon, don’t even try to do something


    funny.” She red at his back, but the alpha kept walking away, ignoring herpletely
